The Basic Training Challenge – The Church Then And NowSample

Day 6 — Obeying Orders
Pray:
Lord God, quiet my soul and open my mind and heart to receive Your Word. Amen.
Read: Acts 8:26-40
Reflect
Many of Jesus’s disciples traveled great distances to teach people about His resurrection and how He died for our salvation. Why did Philip leave where he was and travel south? What can you learn from this about the value of immediate obedience to God? How easy is it for me to follow God's orders?
Respond
Heavenly Father, only You know Your plan for my life. Make clear in my mind and in my heart the work you would have me do. Lord, I will pick myself up and respond to Your calling for my life. I will travel wherever You send me. Amen.
Scripture
About this Plan

God began by calling a man, then a nation, and finally through Jesus, established a church. The Basic Training Challenge provides you with a starting point to learn about God’s mission here on earth through the Christian church. Similar to your basic training, this plan will challenge you to get spiritually fit in God’s Word.
